Genius Spirit Master

Chapter 123: A Shocking Lie (1)
"Where, you are too polite, I just happened to do a little favor."

"In your eyes, it is a small favor, but to me, it is a precious life."

Lu Gongshang spoke earnestly, but his eyes were a little dodged, his handsome face was slightly red, and he didn't dare to look at Feng Wu more.He thought that at least an older woman would be able to save him, but he never expected that Feng Wu would be younger than him, and so beautiful, more beautiful than all the women he had ever seen before .

Seeing that although the law palace merchant is a child of an aristocratic family, he does not have the arrogance and domineering that ordinary noble children are accustomed to, but is too polite, Feng Wu secretly praised her in her heart, and couldn't help asking: "Mr. Meng is the same in everything you do. I said it, but I really can't figure it out, how could you offend the Temple of Light?"

Hearing this, the law merchant's face suddenly turned pale, and he hesitated before saying: "Brother Meng told me that you once killed the silver-clothed wing guards to save him, so you probably aren't a believer in the Temple of Light, so I'll be blunt." Yes. The reason why I was wanted by the Temple is because I accidentally saw a top-secret document of them. It... involved the inside story of the Temple's war with the Demon Realm."

Demon domain!

Hearing this name, Feng Wu's heart trembled immediately, and she pretended to be curious: "The battle of the demon realm? Does it refer to the war 60 years ago? I heard that the demon king intends to raise troops to invade the mainland. The Temple of Light is worried about the people of the world. In order to stop the Demon Lord, he fought against the Demon Realm, and finally won a tragic victory, stopped the Demon Lord's plot, and saved the common people in the world. After this battle, the number of believers in the Temple of Light doubled, and the prestige of the power reached its peak. So far, everyone still respects The temple is grateful. Could it be that there are other secrets?"

What she said was exactly what ordinary people understand about the battle between the Temple of Light and the Demon Realm. After hearing this, the law palace merchant smiled wryly: "Miss Feng Wu, I thought so before, but since I saw that top-secret document Only then did I realize that the so-called saving the common people is just a huge lie."

"What?" Not only Feng Wu, but also Meng Yuan Mansion was taken aback.

But this time, Feng Wu's shock was not disguised.Lu Xi never took the initiative to bring up the events of the year, and Feng Wu didn't ask too much, so his views on this war were similar to those of ordinary people.Now that I suddenly heard that this was a big lie, I was extremely shocked.

Facing everyone's suspicious gazes, Lu Gongshang coughed lightly, and said, "Miss Feng Wu, I am the only son of the second elder of the Elders' Council. Occasionally, I would go to my father's place to look for him. Half a month ago It's my mother's birthday, and the family invited guests to celebrate my mother's birthday. But my father didn't show up until the dinner was almost over. My mother was very angry, so I went to the Senate Chamber to find my father. I thought my father was working as usual and forgot the time , as long as I remind him, he will go home with me. But I never thought that I would see such a scene after I went.”

The scene of that day is still vivid in his mind.I remember that it was late at night when I left home that day, and there were no pedestrians on the street. The carriage of the Lu family soon drove to the elders' meeting hall in the east of the city.Since the law palace merchants often come and go here, the guards all know him, and they didn't stop him when they saw him go in.

The law palace merchant walked towards his father's office as usual, and was about to knock on the door when he heard a fierce argument coming from inside.

"Elder Lu, I solemnly warn you that the consequences of your actions will be to blaspheme the God of Light!"

"But the God of Light deceived his own people first! Ever since I discovered this document, I am ashamed to even say 'the light is above'! Look at what the messengers of the gods have done. This is a big lie, it is even worse than the heretics in the Demon Realm!"

"The past 60 years ago, as long as you don't pursue it, it will gradually fade away. Why do you care?"

"But it is this 'past event' that has brought unprecedented respect and glory to the Temple of Light! If everyone knows that the God of Light they worship is actually a despicable villain, I don't know how chilling it will be."

"The actions of believers cannot represent the will of the God of Light."

"Then why are you preventing me from releasing this document?"

"I just want you to think about it carefully. At least, when the seven elders gather at the regular meeting tomorrow, everyone will decide whether to make it public."

"Well, after all you are... I'll do as you say."

Then, there was the rustling of papers being sorted and the sound of folders being closed in the room.Then, there were footsteps walking towards the door one after the other.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Lu Gongshang felt guilty for no reason, and without thinking about it, he dodged and hid in the shadow behind the tall knight statue next to him, holding his breath nervously, not daring to lift his head.

Two figures walked out of the office, and he could only recognize one of them as his father from the hem of his robe. As for the other man in a black cloak, he didn't know who it was.Although he was a little curious, he was more afraid of alarming others, so he kept his head down, not daring to look at the other person's face.

The long corridor of the meeting hall was dimly lit, which provided the best cover for the law palace merchant, and neither his father nor the other person noticed him.When the footsteps disappeared at the end of the corridor, Lu Gong Shang let out a long sigh of relief, and slowly stood up.

If he chooses to turn around and leave, nothing after that will happen.But at that time, he stared blankly at the door of his father's office, his mind was full of their quarrel just now.

Temple of Light?lie?mean?
Before that, he never thought that the holy God of Light would be associated with these derogatory terms.

What is the content of the document that my father mentioned repeatedly just now?
Driven by curiosity, Lu Gongshang took out the spare key left by his father from the potted plant and opened the door of the office.After rummaging through boxes and cabinets for a while, he finally found the mysterious document in the dark compartment.

But as soon as his trembling hands opened it, before his eyes fell on it, the office was pushed away: "The thief has been caught! Call the imperial guards, this, isn't this Master Li, why are you here?" here?"

"I..." Lu Gongshang has always been too honest, and has never lied in his life. He was surrounded by several guards, and he couldn't say anything.

Seeing his stammering appearance, the guards who originally thought that a thief had entered the house became suspicious.Seeing the word "Top Secret" on the file bag he opened, the guards who were familiar with the working process of the chamber immediately became vigilant.
